Pray heed to the words of the Captain of Cats regarding the champion tournament, to be held at 11th Night in the Shire of Southmarch: Letters of intent to participate should be emailed by midnight on December 7th to Their Alpine Highnesses and cc’d to Master Piaras using piaras2013 (at) gmail dot com. As a reminder, to enter the Captain of Cats Tournament, you must be a member of the Society in good standing. Winning the tournament will come with both prestige and a responsibility to serve the Princess, the Principality, and our community to your utmost ability. This year, as I have done in the past, I am heavily encouraging pageantry. This means if you have a banner, or have time to make one, please bring it! If you have a consort you wish to process with, please do so. We will be doing an actual procession for the induction of the lists. The format of the tournament will be a QRC-style single round robin where you will pick your pairings. We will likely have 2 list fields if space allows and number of entrants warrants it. If there are 10 or more entrants, we will go to a 4-fighter single elimination tournament/semi-final where each pairing will be best 2 out of 3. If there are less than 10, we will immediately go to the finals. The finals will be fought best 2 out of 3, bring your best. I look forward to passing on the cloak to a worthy and noble successor!
– Piaras mac Toirdhealbhaigh, Captain of Cats
